Di qualcosa bisogna pur morire - disse il gatto romantico, innamorandosi per la settima volta.

from john ciardi’s translation of “the inferno” by dante alighieri
“She has the feeling, all her life, that she never makes sense. There is something else, big and dark, at the edge of what she knows, she cannot say. She always has the feeling she is translating into broken english. Language all her life is a second language, the first is mute & exists.”
— Sharon Thesen
“What is more ‘august’ than the stillness of tree leaves on a calm morning, when they seem to listen to the song of light of the rising sun? The sun assigns shadows and the first shape of shapes emanates from its tender authority. Its designs will become sharp and unbearably clear. As of now it still hovers between pink and gold.”
— Paul Valéry, Ego scriptor (via exhaled-spirals)
